Master_Odin, try Male Bonding and Pens. Also Wives, Randy & Dean's old band. It might also be worth your time to look into the whole Smell scene that No Age is associated with. You might enjoy Abe Vigoda and Mika Miko the most out of that scene, both these bands released records on Dean's label, Post Present Medium, and are pretty stylistically similar to No Age. But like baberaham said, No Age really aren't that similar to Dum Dum Girls. In addition to what's already been recommended, a decent amount of the stuff on Woodsist/Captured Tracks record labels might be up your alley. Blank Dogs, Real Estate, Beach Fossils, &c. Dee Dee released a collaboration with Blank Dogs under the name The Mayfair Set which is pretty good, too. Best Coast and Grass Widow are also probably worth giving a listen.

The Gories, The Oblivians, The Mummies, The Trashwomen, The Reatards, The Strange Boys, Black Lips, The Spaceshits, King Khan & The Shrines, BBQ/Mark Sultan Solo, Happy Birthday (King Tuff's band, but they're REALLY poppy, so you might not dig em as much) Just check out the catalogs of labels like In The Red, Crypt, Goner, etc. A lot of bands on those labels will probably be right up your alley.

Unmistakeable Fire posted:I have a music request of my own as well. Looking at SA, and stuff about music in general online, there is a lot of "GOOD MUSIC TM" or "here's some obscure band you should be listening to" but I'm not really interested that at the moment. Where can I go to get current on the music that drunk girls at clubs are listening to? That stuff sounds great when I'm drunk or high though I have no desire to listen to it on anything but Friday and Saturday nights, but every other day of the week I am listening to a bunch of poo poo for myself.

Eh, just call it Punk. It might be slightly more technical, but it's still Punk. Anyway... try A Wilhelm Scream, Strung Out, No Trigger, and Strike Anywhere. If you pop into the Punk thread here, I'm sure some dudes there will be able to give you a much more comprehensive list.

I actually think that Harlem's album is recorded pretty well, and wouldn't really file it under Lo-Fi. For some Nuggets-y, mid-fi Garage Rock similar to Harlem, try Thee Oh Sees, Smith Westerns, The Fresh & Onlys, Ty Segall, Happy Birthday, Black Lips, The Strange Boys, and Wounded Lion. For The Dismemberment Plan, start with Emergency & I then get Change and ...Is Terrified.

Cluricaun posted:I am an old person who normally likes heavy metal, so please be nice at this vague rear end request about hipster indie stuff: You could probably just run a search on AllMusic or Last.fm or Wikipedia or whatever for Alt-Country and it would turn up dozens of bands that have the sound you're looking for. I haven't really paid attention to this stuff in a couple of years, but I think that Okkervil River do the country/folk/americana tinged Indie Rock thing the best out of all those bands. I remember also liking Neko Case, Songs: Ohia/Magnolia Electric Co., Bonnie 'Prince' Billy/Palace/Will Oldham, and Silver Jews a lot.

I was just wondering if there were any bands I may have glossed over. Thanks, though. And gay til death I'll definitely look into the bands that you named that I'm not familiar with.

Some of the stuff that I already listen to that falls into this category are Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, Primus, Ween, Pere Ubu, the Residents, Estradasphere, and any of the Mike Patton projects and I guess to a lesser extent Devo and Buckethead. I'm having a hard time finding similarly strange bands these days without just heading into all-out avantgarde territory (which can be up its own rear end at times, and most I find completely humorless). The Frogs and Black Randy & The Metrosquad.

thehandtruck posted:1) What are some artists like Major Lazer? Specifically I really like the song Hold the Line. Like pretty much all Dancehall, dude. Some notable contemporary MCs/Groups include Vybz Kartel, Mr. Vegas, Elephant Man, Mavado, Tony Matterhorn, Gyptian, Beenie Man, Sean Paul, Aidonia, T.O.K., Busy Signal... It's worth noting that Dancehall, like most Dance music, is a singles driven genre, so most of the albums are pretty big stinkers. Compilations and mixes are probably the easiest way to engage the genre. I recommend checking out some of The Heatwave's mixes, http://www.theheatwave.co.uk/music/ they also have a radio show on Rinse.fm Monday 1 AM - 3 AM GMT (Sunday 8PM - 10 PM EST) There are people on this forum like Ras Het who could run loving circles around me w/r/t this stuff cuz I am still entry-level as gently caress, but that is basically where I started.

Following up the Guitar Wolf recommendation, if you're into Garage Punk, also check out Teengenerate, The 5.6.7.8's, and Registrators. People seem to really like Guitar Wolf, but for my money, Teengenerate are a much better band.

If you like The Sonics, I would say avoid the Nuggets and Pebbles compilations as they will probably just bore you. The Seeds and 13th Floor Elevators are like the best bands on there. Instead, check out the Back From The Grave compilations that Crypt Records released in the late 80s/early 90s if you can track them down. I think there are eight volumes. It's mostly stuff from super obscure bands that were just as loud and raucous as The Sonics were but they cut only a single, or two, maybe, before calling it quits. Also w/r/t the dude asking for similar stuff to The Cramps, why the gently caress have none of you said The Gun Club?!? Get their first two albums, Fire Of Love and Miami. Kid Congo Powers played in both bands, and he has a new band (Kid Congo And The Pink Monkey Birds) who put out a record on In The Red this year that is great. Maybe try The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion? Brimstone Howl? Rocket From The Crypt? Flat Duo Jets? Johnny Thunders? If you're interested in rockabilly, get some Hasil Adkins.

afgrunden posted:Hey, I am looking for hip hop that sounds a lot like some mid 90s East Coast stuff. Specifically, I want something that is in a similar vein as GZA's Liquid Swords and Mobb Deep's The Infamous - so, narrative/visual lyrics and beats that are dark, grimy, "haunting," "gritty," whatever. Atmospheric weirdness is a plus. Not exactly the same, but similar, ASAP Rocky and Mr. Muthafuckin eXquire are like the saviors of New York right now. Clams Casino's beats tend to be pretty "haunting" what with the ethereal vocals sampled from Imogen Heap and whoever else. eXquires beats run a pretty large gamut of producers, with El-P and Necro handling some. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EB7bmQg6m3Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt6MvNz5nCc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bzoyVKZaL4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzcFjJSgWfE

I've been having trouble finding newer rap I like (too many loving Lex Luger beats). Don't know if you'll read this but if you do, do you have any recommendations of similar artists? I'd PM you but I dont have that upgrade It's kind of hard to point you in one direction considering the fragmented nature of Hip-Hop right now that isn't really Trap Rap, so none of these are terribly similar. Some stuff from this year worth giving a listen to might be the rest of the A$AP Mob, Action Bronson, Danny Brown, Freddie Gibbs, and Kendrick Lamar. Maybe try Black Dave if you want something similar to Lil B or Odd Future but with more quality control and less corniness lyrically, or Main Attrakionz if you grow to like the more spaced out ASAP/Lil B type stuff. Maybe you'd also dig Elzhi's Elmatic tape from earlier this year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUGkL6wGZWI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs0jWDRcA9o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPCQgzA1cnU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmqU0dqZzAQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPJGRgPkY6U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0Bfe34c5ME https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D128R20S-Ow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcqGNDo2jzc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38HmE7fuE1w Edit: Here's a pretty great posse cut remix of the eXquire track I posted earlier with Despot, Das Racist, Danny Brown and El-P: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0ijOe3sGEk Radio Spiricom fucked around with this message at 20:39 on Dec 16, 2011 |
